Peppers, Birmingham

Spread over two floors, Peppers is out to rock Birmingham! This eatery has infused a sense of the contemporary into it, attracting cartloads of clientèle. Sample all kinds of Eastern cuisines here, from Pan-Asian and Indian to Chinese. The first level houses a Bollywood theme-bar; the walls hold life-size cutouts of Indian actors and a television screening Hindi movies. The resident DJ also makes the crowd swing to Indian numbers (alongside a little R&B, hip-hop and other genres). Chill here with a drink and then head to the restaurant for a taste of Asia. It's worth every penny spent!
